    I used to live nearby! Loved that silly thing, just don’t treat it like one big roundabout - it’s six chained roundabouts that you can use individually; both green and red routes are valid and legal for the same destination:

      Could someone flip this for those of us who drive on the right?

        But the drawn arrows already imply driving on the right side? Or did this get edited?

          i was literally just thinking - the cars are driving on the left and the arrows are all driving on the right 😂

        Traffic lights make roundabouts pointless, unless they’re on a quick cycle used to ‘group’ cars entering a multi-lane roundabout.

        If your population didn’t grow up with roundabouts though, and treats them like YOLO free for alls… then you might need lights

          My hometown installed roundabouts, with 4 way stop signs. Like, why.

          My town built lots of roundabouts, and the population are used to them, but they have a problem with unbalanced traffic, and it’s been growing, so traffic has been getting more unbalanced - more people coming from directions the engineers who planned the road didn’t expect

          The real problem, of course, is that though they are trying they are not able to replace the traffic with mass transit. The buses get stuck in the same traffic, light rail seems impossible, even with political will

        Saving the operational costs of traffic lights is the biggest pro of roundabouts. Cars inside a roundabout always have priority and cars who wanna enter it have to yield.

          Swiss replaced most large interections with roundabouts in the whole country about 15 years ago. It worked out.

            In the US, red lights are apparently optional

        i don’t think there are any. priority is based on how much you think you could take rival vehicles in a fight.
